I have the same problem! The greater buffersize, the greater latency.
I tried the exs24 in logic and the timing was perfect, at any buffersize,
as for other software instruments in performer (where I use Mach5).
Anyone experienced this and solved it?

I found the cause of playback latency in my case. When I bus out the diffrent drums on diffrent buses, the latency occures, it works perfectly when going through the main out! that's a drag though, what is the purpose of the ability to bus out the diffrent parts in M5 if a latency appears? Am I missing out something here?

I've found a fairly consistent (say) 128 sample delay when I bounce things within Pro Tools. The solution is fairly simple, - as I'm using PTLE which doesn't have delay compensation (by the way, that's the reason why EXS is tight) I just pick the bounces up and drop them 128 samples (or whatever) earlier. But it is consistent as far as I can tell.

The word "sloppy" would indicate varying latency (like a drummer going in an out of time). Can I ask if anyone is experiencing this? This could be caused by samples not being trimmed exactly right (which happens - even in commercial libraries - and would be particularly noticable on short percussive sounds) or by MachFive's timing wandering in and out. I've not noticed MachFive's timing wandering - has anyone?
